Can\'t Detect Monitor When Using HDMI Port

Greetings,

It\'s me again!

I have a new laptop and having problems switching my monitor usage from old laptop S-video configuration to new laptop HDMI cable usage. I am unable to display my laptop image as I am failing to detect a dual monitor (Windows Control Panel function) when using either of my two newly purchased HDMI Male to 3 RCA Video Audio cables.

I am able to successfully detect an external VGA monitor when I have a VGA Monitor Cable connected to my laptop, however, when using the HDMI port, (with my external monitor setting switched from AV to HDMI) nothing is detected.

I am planning to eventually use a “switcher” to connect two monitors at once (to support for MTU Hoster software needs), meantime, I am just trying to get one HDMI cable to work when it is directly connected to one of my monitors—No Luck! (See attachments for further details.)

Any and all help greatly appreciated.
Best,
Gwen
